I see that Mr. Hack has a six-speed conversion for the 928 available now....

I believe that some of our RennList members had some issues with Hack.

This guy is crazy. My other car, the S4 Audi is on this guys list of goodie upgradeable cars. The sad truth is he has misled a bunch of people on the Audi S4 front. Check out www.urs4.com.

If the 6 speed has less favorable ratios than the 5 speed, this would be a very stupid move.

I don't see how he could possibly have all of those upgrades available. I also recall hearing stories of threats made by people from this place.

John,
I saw a link where an Audi S4 owner in Austin clearly chrnonicled the email, voice mail and telephone exchanges with Hack. Most were not very professional and a few involved deat threats.

I think it was a thread on the URS4 site.

I think Wally's thinking mentioning Mr. Hack or Mr. I will screw You, is to let his fellow Rennlist members know about his new endeavors and marketing so that someone will not fall prey to Mr. Hacks devilish schemes to bilk money from us.

You can only hope somewhere in the future there'll be some justice.

Just in case anyone's interested in that shifter handle he has for sale for $89, I saw the exact same one for sale today. Circuit City sells them for $22.
